I haven't found any gig yet. Because of this experience, I am now a little bit hesitant to take up a freelance gig or work with a non-company.
I am now still waiting for the status of my application at the tech company here for IT Project Manager but they're postponing all projects due to covid.

Have you looked into working online? There are also risks with not getting paid, but obviously a lot of IT work is now being done remotely, which would open up many more opportunities than just looking for a gig in Phnom Penh since it is a global job market rather than a local one.

So, if someone can tell me what kind of evidence they need, I'll try my best to provide them.

The screenshots are evidence and they indicate he acknowledges he owes you money.

Yeah its evident he has definitely fucked her about with her salary and should pay up, its only $500, hardly worth getting your name thrown in the dirt over, id just pay her what he owes n be done with it

I have the same fear to work online. Especially knowing by working online, the risk is even bigger compared to work locally.
But I'm not closing my door. If there's a decent, registered, and legit company open for remote work, I'll try my luck.
What I'm going to do is to keep applying both for local companies and remote/online work.
Hopefully, this pandemic situation will get better not only for me but for all of us.

If we accept that the OP is genuine, which I do, then Hutchins deserves to be called out IMO.The guy's behaviour is not acceptable. If he's not a scammer, then he's an arsehole, and HE HAS NOT PAID HER.
$500 is $500 that was earned by the OP, so the guy is stealing money that belongs to her. People here have asked for proof, and the OP provided screenshots of messages asking to be paid that go back to December. The OP is warning other people not to work for him, which is fair enough.

BTW, the name Ben Hutchins is at the top of the screenshots so there was not much point in ****ing his name. And unfortunately, naming and shaming is sometimes the only way you can get any response.
Times are hard, I hope you get your money OP.

YMYMYM I too well feel for your situation, it was only recently that the unthinkable happened to myself where I could not access my banking account. It’s not much fun being left in a situation of no monies available to oneself when suddenly you yourself fall into debt to others such has rent and bills, being the foreigner also the situation could fall bad, with authorities following protocol, incarnation then deportation. It will always be asked of you, can a member of your family pay, or failing that what of friends. My own family are in no position to pay for me has they are having difficulties making ends meet in this time of a pandemic. Luckily for me I had an unexpected offer of monies from a caring member on this forum, giving me time to sort out the situation, it was the first time I have ever been put in a personal situation to ever borrow money.
Your situation is slightly different, with a third party owning you monies for work done, I hope the person who you had been employed by seeing the hardship he is now causing pays the wages due.
You quote- Hopefully, this pandemic situation will get better not only for me but for all of us.
I hope so too, and hope you get your payment due, but this pandemic situation makes people in the position has yourself more desperate too work, unfortunately it also gives the scammers more options.

This Ben Hutchins seems like he’s been running scams a while. Doubt you get paid but thanks for getting this scumbags name out.

no you are exactly right and as i mentioned in my last couple of posts its out of order
i censored out his name after the first couple of posts, before i had seen any screenshots or more of the story had been revealed,
i have since (now im back from the gym) restored the name and pictures to the original post

Its nof of great help but the OP seems to be honest. Thank you mods for going back to the original settings. Such scumbags need to be named to avoid same troubles for anybody. Going out drinking while owning money urgently needed by staff is disgusting.

Well done. We don't want to become a sewer like TOF

Yes, this is a bastion of purity and goodness.

Yes, CEO is now in the collection business. It is interesting that a certain admin became very supportive of the cause once the OP's photo and ID was posted.
